For a long time, I have hoped for better days, but alas, today it is necessary for me to lose all hope. My poor wife suffers more and more. I do not think it is possible to be any weaker.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Sadness is weak; I don't believe in weakness.
I try to find hope in struggle and resistance in small places as much as I can.
Sometimes your disappointments make you a stronger person for the future.
At the end of the day, you can be physically strong, you can have all the tools out there, but if your mental state isn't good enough, you can't bring yourself to bigger and better things.
I do believe that most men live lives of quiet desperation. For despair, optimism is the only practical solution. Hope is practical. Because eliminate that and it's pretty scary. Hope at least gives you the option of living.
Optimism is not inherently a superior way of viewing the world. Certainly doctors will say it might be better for one's physical health to be an optimist. But, morally speaking it may not be appropriate in certain circumstances.
Hope is a very thin diet.
It's a wonderful thing to be optimistic. It keeps you healthy and it keeps you resilient.
Every day, we have to strive to be better people. Some days we give in to weakness, and sometimes we give in to strength.
Sometimes when you get disappointment it makes you stronger.
